NICKY ALLEN

Nicky ’s love for Yoga started in the 1990’s and has grown ever since. Moving to Newfoundland in 1997 she studied under a number of teachers and several different styles until she finally found her yoga home at Nova Yoga. 

As her children grew and circumstances changed, Nicky decided she wanted to get back to her passion for health and build on her Psychology and Counselling Qualifications. Training as a Life Coach with a Professor of Neuroscience (who was also a Yoga teacher) and a year long course in Positive Psychology at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health, gently established Yoga and Meditation as part of Nicky’s daily life. 

Her work in Corporate Wellness involved teaching people the evidence based benefits of Meditation and Yoga so it seemed a natural step to undertake a year long Yoga Teacher Training Course. 

Nicky sees Yoga as an important part of a healthy balanced life, as well as a tool for physical, mental and emotional wellness. She hopes to pass on some of these wonderful benefits through her teaching.
